“The NPP government has performed far better than the Mahama-led administration. The previous NDC government cannot credit itself with one single policy or intervention within the cocoa industry that was introduced by them.
“This is because most of the interventions in the cocoa industry were first initiated and implemented by either the Kufuor government or this present government.
Speaking at the Leadership Series press conference,the Mr. Asamoa gave more details concerning the Cocoa Farmers,he said, “Farmer’s are far better-off today than yesterday and tomorrow looks even more promising. We are, however, constantly reminded of the immeasurable sacrifices and role our cocoa farmers play in the development of our country.
Justifying his points, he used the platform to call on cocoa farmers to vote massively against Mr. Mahama by saying “Our warning to cocoa farmers, their dependents, and all well-meaning Ghanaians is this: keep John Mahama’s hands away from your cocoa.
“He is the alternative and when it comes to the welfare and well-being of the Ghanaian farmer, John Mahama is dangerous.
“He does not know how to manage the economy. He does not know how to help the cocoa industry. He has no clue what the needs of the farmers are. To him, cocoa is just an avenue for corruption. Leaving the industry to suffer,” he concluded.
